    Iced Matcha Green Tea Latte and Brazilian Sunrise Smoothie - Two iced drinks, one green matcha latte and one dark chocolate beverage, are on a wooden table inside a cafe. The cafe has large windows allowing natural light, with two people sitting at a table in the background. The interior features brick walls and potted plants, creating a cozy atmosphere.

    It's about average for a cafe. Not too bad, but nothing I'd really remember. The Brazilian Sunrise was sloggy and thick, even for a smoothie; it was slightly colder than room temperature but not necessarily sweet nor refreshing. Overall, I liked the size and price of the drinks, but probably wouldn't return again.

    Everything bagel with veggie cream cheese. Iced Latte with oat milk. - A bagel sandwich filled with cream cheese and chopped vegetables is wrapped in parchment paper on a table. Two iced coffee drinks in clear plastic cups with straws are visible in the background. The setting appears to be a casual dining or cafe environment.

    Delicious! We got bagels and croissants and a smoothie and huge iced lattes with just the right amount of creamer. The staff is so friendly and accommodating (made the smoothie to my son's liking) and they have a lovely little back garden that we couldn't use because it had just rained, but it's the spot that counts. We brought our small dog in and it wasn't an issue...10/10 would recommend.

    The Bronx Bagel

    idk how this place has so many good reviews. bagel was so thin, worst açaí bowl i've ever tasted. it tasted like cardboard. crazy. ambiance mid, backyard area disgusting. idk if ppl actually eat out there but i personally wouldn't. nutella latte was good tho

    Bagel with your choice of spread, veggie cream cheese - A partially eaten bagel topped with veggie cream cheese, chopped cucumbers, and shredded carrots, placed on parchment paper. The bagel appears soft with a light crust, and the toppings are spread unevenly. The image shows a close-up view of the snack, highlighting the fresh vegetables and creamy spread.

    I ordered The Green Bowl, a spinach/kale/mango/banana/vanilla yogurt base, topped with granola, kale, blueberries, flax, and coconut flakes. I requested to sub the kale topping for strawberries, which they did! I've had this bowl twice from here and it is a favorite breakfast order for sure. I also had a vanilla iced latte, which had a great balance of sweetness vs. espresso. I also ordered a sesame bagel with veggie cream cheese. The bagel was a bit stale, and the veggie cream cheese was a large amount of shredded carrot and chunks of cucumber in a cream cheese that was very, wet? Almost like the texture of mayo in a coleslaw type salad. It didn't taste bad per say, but I didn't enjoy it. Perhaps an off instance, I will still be back at least for other items!

    Everything bagel with scallion cream cheese, red rocker smoothie, and house blend small.

    I love this place! Staff is friendly and fast. Our order was great. We got a small house blend, everything bagel scallion and cream cheese (it was yummy!) , and a red rockers smoothie. They also have vegan option for food. It is great for working remotely. Good wifi connection. Our table had a USB outlet integrated in it, lots of wall outlets, comfortable sitting and different types. Dog friendly!

    Iced Nutella Latte, Brooklyn Bagel
    Trisha D.

    Nice quaint cafe with plenty of cozy seats and good lighting. Would be a great place to work out of quietly. Good drinks and bagels as well. Iced Nutella Coffee: SO SO good. But too much espresso for me as I'm not a coffee drinker. Every sip came with a shot of Nutella as well. Loved it! Brooklyn Bagel (cream cheese, tomato, avocado, pesto): tasty but next time I'll go with another one due to personal preference. It was filling and the bagel to content ratio was good. Ambience: chi vibe and perfect for working COVID precaution: sanitizer available and plenty of space

    Delicious bagel cafe! I had the vegan banana muffin and smoked salmon bagel and they were both really delicious! They have a good selection of different types of bagels and coffee offered. To wash down my delicious breakfast, I had their cold brew coffee which was pretty good as well. I had a bite of my friends avocado+cream cheese bagel and that was super tasty as well. I would definitely come back!

    A white sign with red text and a handwritten note taped to it is positioned on a wooden table at IC Brooklyn Cafe in Brooklyn, NY. The sign includes instructions for ordering via the DoorDash app, with a red arrow pointing upward. The handwritten note, attached with tape, asks about napkins and opening the drawer, and thanks the customer. Business cards are placed on the table next to the sign, and part of a stainless steel kitchen appliance is visible in the background.

    Came here for the first time around noon on a weekday and there was plenty of seating including a large backyard area with seating. It's a spacious cafe with many styles of seating to choose from. The food as also delicious and affordably priced! I ordered the Bronx bagel which was very yummy and a juice that I didn't enjoy as much but it wasn't bad. I ended up staying for hours here working - quite a few people were there doing the same thing. Would definitely recommend this cafe and the cushioned window seat for an ideal experience.

    SO FRESH! This little cafe has super fresh ingredients and so many great bagel options. The juice and smoothies are also super fresh from real fruit. Perfect for a morning breakfast or a quick lunch. They also have some nice seating options inside as well! Go check it out!

    Brooklyn Bagel, Iced Matcha Green Tea Latte, Iced Latte - Two hands, one with a beaded bracelet, hold sandwiches with visible vegetables, spreads, and bread. The table has two iced drinks, one with a brown beverage and the other with a green beverage, both with straws. The background includes a decorative metal sign and cafe menus, indicating a casual dining setting.

    This was our first bagel stop during our trip and wow were we immediately impressed. This was such a great introduction to NY bagels for two Californian girls. We got the premade bagel sandwiches, matcha latte, and an iced latte. The iced latte was strong beyond belief, easily the best iced latte. The matcha latte was lacking a bit but everything else was just so good it almost doesn't matter. The ambience of this place is also really cute and their patio is perfectly tucked away to make a quiet little reading corner.

    See all

As far as the customer service goes I wish it was a bit better. The staff aren't the most pleasant. No good morning no acknowledgement of comprehending what you order they just walk away and start the order. Which is why I double check always. I do notice they speak more pleasantly to other customers that come in. Not sure if it's a culture thing or could they be discriminatory but it's a bit unsettling. Food: 3.8/5 I only order the poppy seed bagel and that's pretty tasty. Not to doughy although I do have them take out a good portion of the bread because I like it to be extremely thin. Service: 3 /5 Service needs major improvements , language barriers are also a major factor to consider as they do speak Spanish and their primary language. Ambiance: 3/5 Standard & basic bagel shop set up. Standing & waiting area is basic they have counter tops should you want to stand inside and eat nothing fancy. They do have a wide variety of drinks to choose from and coffee and tea.

We wanted to try something different after having explored so many of the typical places in Manhattan and Shelsky's came highly recommended While I was expecting a long wait on a Saturday mid-morning, I was pleasantly surprised to find the establishment with only a few in line before us. Now, I was desperately seeking a very simple belly lox with schmear, but much to my dismay, they didn't have any more belly lox. I was heartbroken and had to figure out a plan B While I pondered, the family quickly ordered a Peter Shelsky, a Great Gatsby, and a Fancy Pants. I crumbled in my panic and jumped in with another Peter Shelsky. We also tried a small amount of whitefish salad and a beet/thyme salad The service was quick and we were able to grab two of the three small tables at the front to enjoy our fare. Soon we were digging in and from the immediate silence, I could tell everyone was enjoying their choices. The bagels were on the smaller side, denser with a firm crust. We did enjoy the bagels, but I could see how someone not familiar with this style may find them too "cardboard-y" I have to say, the pickled herring on the Peter Shelsky was fantastic, but was way too overpowering for the nova and sable. I actually regretted my choice and would order something more sunken next time. (Or get to the store earlier to beat the rush for the darn belly lox!) The beet salad was quite a nice balance to for the bagels adding a bit of brightness. The whitefish salad was solid - a hint of smoke and a creamy puree. Some who prefer a chunkier whitefish salad might find this less than satisfactory, but the flavors were great A cure store, friendly and patient staff, a great first exposure to Brooklyn for the boys. We'll be back (and we want belly lox!!)

It's a pretty spacious bagel spot with ample seating menu's with pricing for all items they sell which is helpful. Food: 3/5 I ordered a jalapeño bagel with turkey bacon, and scrambled eggs. The bagel was okay nothing to rave about your standard bagel. Nothing to make me fave about it. The texture was chewy and a bit doughy if you like your bagels that texture this may be the spot for you. Overall my bagel was about 10-12$ I believe. They charge extra for a rainbow bagel and other specialty bagels like jalapeño. Which is pretty expensive so make sure you're aware of that. Service: 3/5 The customer service was mediocre. The guy at the front wasn't the most pleasant. Very much get you in an out top of place. They weren't rude but not the most cheerful I'd say.
